Description Jan Ščotka 2011-04-05 10:35:44 UTC

Description of problem:
Hi,
We would like to use metadata directly in TCMS testcases and now is for us imoportant Product column.
Our situation is, that we have most of tests, what are intend without any change also in RHEL5 and also RHEL6, and we don't wan't to copy it, create duplicate, due to redundancy and future changes, what must be in both of them same

So our requirement is to do Product as multiple choice. 
The most common is that testcase is also in RHEL5, RHEL6 and in same cases also for Fedora(version).

We would like to have similar (same) functionality like "Releases:" in beaker test Makefiles.

It is for us (our tier test) killer feature, because now it is for us useless to have only one product, due to universality of our tests.


conlusion:
 * no redundancy of testcases what are same for many products ( we need update them, and in case of copy is big chance to forgot update everything)
 * Have metadata in one place
 * See history of runs of testcase
 * multiple choice of product

Or is there any solution what will be ideal for us, and will cover what we need?

   Thanks&Regards
   Honza

Are these test cases in test run ? I suggest clone test run into different product ,then all test cases in the run will be cloned into new run, and all metadata of case not changed.
